*Edit* corrected link Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

I think they look ugly. Don't look right on a traditional vehicle like the Defender. Maybe smaller ones as extra driving lights, but not main replacements. Perhaps a conventional looking lens, as the TLs have would be the disguise compromise.

LED could possibly help save wildlife. It scares & shines back reflective eyes better, or makes eyes glowing red. Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world. Not a fashion vehicle, but fashionable to own. Made for the needy, not the greedy. Ta ta Defender
